The Port of Lisbon will host Portugal Shipping Week 2024 from May 6th to 10th, featuring various initiatives in Lisbon and Setúbal dedicated to decarbonizing maritime transport and ports, and how all stakeholders (national governments, ports, terminals, and the maritime community) are preparing for this challenge.
The third edition of this event is organized by Petrospot in partnership with the Port of Lisbon Administration, the Port of Setúbal Administration, the Portuguese Ports Association, the Portuguese Shipowners Association, Euromar, Galp, and the Nautical School Infante D. Henrique.
Portugal Shipping Week 2024 (PSW2024) aims to position Portugal as a global center for maritime transport and logistics and an increasingly important player in the European and global energy transition.
During this week, shipowners, foreign managers, energy suppliers, and representatives from all maritime disciplines have the opportunity to develop new business relationships with leaders in the Portuguese maritime and alternative energy sectors, as well as with key international stakeholders.
For the first day, May 6th, training on Alternative Fuels is scheduled at the Nautical School Infante D. Henrique, followed by the celebration of the school's 100th anniversary. Also on this day, the headquarters of the European Maritime Safety Agency (EMSA) in Lisbon will host the Training Workshop on Emissions Implications.
On Tuesday, May 7th, the Alcântara Maritime Terminal will host the "Flagship," the most emblematic conference of the meeting, dedicated to maximizing commercial potential and adopting green economy, concluding with a cruise on the Tagus River, promoted by the Port of Lisbon Administration.
